System rotation target ?

Tracking is a burden, and it would be lessenned for everyone if the windows were shortened, which seems to be a pretty popular solution if you read this thread.

Again, you do realize that most raid mobs in classic EQ were on some sort of variance, right? No, it wasn't this large but you could never log in at an exact time to go kill nagafen.

And it would be lessened the most if we had classic spawns. Do you NOT want that? I'm confused.

The point is they were practically negligible and pale in comparison to what we have here. Iirc, not all of them were on a variance, either. Unfortunately, decreasing the length of the variance significantly poses other problems, as the variance is in place currently to limit GM involvement. There's more than 1 issue that would need fixing, but i'm glad we can at least see it somewhat similarly.

Nedala, you're attacking me but i'm uttering much the same words you are... there WILL be clusterfucks. Can we avoid them? yes. Can we do it without variance? Absolutely. Remember, though, clusterfucks were classic. Avoiding clusterfucks with certain raiding rules was also classic. This 4 day window is not and it's unnecessary.

There shouldn't be any variance at all. Pop everything after the next server crash/patch, and let guilds choose what they are to go for. It was like that on live. Why should it be any different here?

A guild can't be in 7 places at once. Want to call it a classic server, then run it like one. At least jacking up melee or spell casters for these patches are just like it was on live. Run one or two things on a code server and say its working,put it on live and in fact its bugged to hell.
